anormalmannerwithawell‐constructednetwork,theSierra

Wirelessmodemshouldnotbeusedinsituationswherefailure

totransmitorreceivedatacouldresultindamageofanykind

totheuseroranyotherparty,includingbutnotlimitedto

acceptsnoresponsibilityfordamagesofanykindresulting

fromdelaysorerrorsindatatransmittedorreceivedusingthe

Safety and Hazards DonotoperatetheSierraWirelessmodeminareaswhere

blastingisinprogress,whereexplosiveatmospheresmaybe

oranyequipmentwhichmaybesusceptibletoanyformof

radiointerference.Insuchareas,theSierraWirelessmodem

MUSTBEPOWEREDOFF.TheSierraWirelessmodemcan

transmitsignalsthatcouldinterferewiththisequipment.

DonotoperatetheSierraWirelessmodeminanyaircraft,

whethertheaircraftisonthegroundorinflight.Inaircraft,the

SierraWirelessmodemMUSTBEPOWEREDOFF.When

operating,theSierraWirelessmodemcantransmitsignalsthat

couldinterferewithvariousonboardsystems.

Note: Some airlines may permit the use of cellular phones while the

aircraft is on the ground and the door is open. Sierra Wireless

modems may be used at this time.

Thedriveroroperatorofanyvehicleshouldnotoperatethe

SierraWirelessmodemwhileincontrolofavehicle.Doingso

willdetractfromthedriveroroperatorʹscontrolandoperation

needtopurchaseitseparately.

Your account and coverage area

Note: If you purchased the

modem from a GSM service

provider, you may already have

an account and a SIM card.

Otherwise, your retailer should

be able to give you the names of

companies that provide these

items.

YoumusthaveanaccountwithaGSMserviceprovidertouse

themodem.Tousethemodem’s3Gcapability,youraccount

mustbewithaserviceproviderthatoffersHSDPA/HSUPAor

UMTSservice.(Themodemisbackwardscompatiblewith2G

Yourabilitytoobtainservicedependsonthesefactors:

Note: The fee for service is

usually higher when you are

roaming (connected to a network

other than the one belonging to

your service provider).

•Networkcoverage—Youmustbewithinthenetwork

coveragearea.

•Serviceprovider—Ifyouarewithinthecoverageareaofa

networkthatisnotoperatedbyyourownserviceprovider,

youcanobtainserviceonlyifthereisaroamingagreement

betweenyourserviceproviderandthenetworkoperator.

•Accountprovisions—Youraccountmayrestrictyour

usagetocertainnetworksorlimittheamountoftimeyou

canusethenetwork.

•Frequencyband—Youcannotconnecttonetworks

operatinginbandsnotsupportedbyyourmodem,

regardlessofroamingagreementsoraccountprovisions.

MostserviceprovidershavecoveragemapsontheirWebsites.
